module ZipTricks::RemoteUncap
Alows reading the central directory of a remote ZIP file without downloading the entire file. The central directory provides the offsets at which the actual file contents is located. You can then use the `Range:` HTTP headers to download those entries separately.
Please read the security warning in `FileReader` _VERY CAREFULLY_ before you use this module.
